On our trips you are driven by a professional guide in a dedicated safari vehicle, or flown between parks by scheduled light aircraft. You never need to arrange transport yourself.
Light aircraft
Daily scheduled flights from Nairobi Wilson link the Mara, Amboseli, Samburu, Laikipia, Lamu and Diani. Flights are 45 to 90 minutes and land on bush airstrips where your camp vehicle waits.
Road
Nairobi to the Mara is five to six hours; to Amboseli four; to Nakuru two and a half. Roads to the main parks are mostly paved; inside the parks they are not, which is part of the fun.
Train and city
The Madaraka Express runs Nairobi to Mombasa in under five hours and is a pleasant alternative to flying to the coast. In Nairobi, ride-hailing apps (Uber, Bolt) are reliable; we recommend them over street taxis.
